Donald Judd: The Writings

Donald Judd belonged to the first generation of American artists for whom writing was an essential part of their work. His uncompromising art reviews add up to a compelling account of a major period in American art. His theoretical essays, most famously Specific Objects (1965), helped redefine the nature of sculpture. Art historians Richard Shiff, Hal Foster and Anna Dezeuze, and artist-writer David Batchelor explore the significance of Judd’s writings for understanding his art and that of his contemporaries, and assess his contribution as a writer to debates on art and politics over the last forty years. Chaired by Mignon Nixon (Courtauld Institute).
